As the Seas Around Them Rise, Louisiana Fisherman Deny Climate Change

Um...I was saying that intensesaint was implying CNN buried the lead
I was pointing out the silliness of that claim

CNN has become an easy target for the alt but I don't know of any liberal who uses it as a news source, much less as some cult
Sounds like you might be drawn into the false "fair and balanced" binary and just make the pat assumption that it the right is doing it on one side, then the left must be doing the same on the other
Do better

But the larger point, if you want to argue FOR increasing the scope of the conversation to include other contributors to coastal land loss, don't do it by arguing against one of the other contributing factors
Feels agenda-y

If we were talking about campus sexual assault, and your reply was, "hey lots of females sexually assaulting males goes unreported" it sounds like you're trying to undermine the original discussion not adding to it

I don't think he's arguing against it as much as much as simply putting it in it's proper context among the possible list of causes, which are myriad. Climate change is a complicated subject with a lot of moving parts, and as such, should consider those factors in what could be causing the very real coastal erosion.

Now where it should be ranked in term of setting priorities can be argued, but I think we can all agree that there are a number of variables contributing to coastal erosion.
